It works well enough running the windows version with wine on a linux box, I've not been highly motivated to look into it further. Metamod appears to not work with the latest update, not sure if there will be any metamod updates for the new server binary or not. And there is no steam installed on the server.

I wonder if they updated the steam client in the windows version, but not the Linux version? I'll revisit this when I have a chance, see what I can find. Maybe find out what IP(s) it is trying to hit. I remember many years ago I had to do something with the steam IPs in the config to get it on the steam list, but dang that was a long time ago and I have no idea what I did...

Sorry I haven't looked at this list in a while (hopefully you already
found the answer!)... Windows uses the steamclient that's installed,
whereas on Linux it uses the steamclient that's shipped with the game
(Windows does too - if Steam is not installed). So if the game has an
old version of steamclient, you'll get stuck with situations like
this. The Ship for instance had the Steam Masters (Mains? in 2020)
hard coded into the binary and were eventually orphaned like this. I
know years ago Qwest was trying to take back their address space from
Valve and Aldred flipped addresses on us which broke a shit ton of
games - if there's a hard coded address against this it's possible you
were impacted when they made a trivial (to them) move.

Were you able to resolve it natively? I might not be able to help, but
CC me so it lands in my inbox and I can try to.

Best,
Kyle.

Well, as stupid as it sounds, I am able to get this to work by running
the Windows version of hlds with wine on Linux. I am stumped as to why,
with identical configs. the linux version gives the message "Could not
establish connection to Steam servers.", while the Winbloze version
running with wine works perfectly?

I've been running my OP4 servers for years. Bloody years. And for the
last few days, my players are messaging me, saying the my servers are
no longer on the server list. I look at console, and when I start
server I get:

Could not establish connection to Steam servers.

I've changed nothing. This has been working for many years. My ports
are unchanged. My ISP is not blocking anything (that I know of).

I used steamcmd to get a fresh copy of hlds and op4, and it looks like
some of the core server files had updated, so I applied the update,
but it changes nothing.

Did Valve update hlds recently, or update something on their end? This
is hlds on linux if that makes any difference.
